How To Replace Garage Door Rollers And Not Die | THE HANDYMAN |

[@derekwright4105]

As a 25-year Garage Tech, I would like to suggest that you use a different technique for replacing the bottom roller. The way you do it opens you up to a myriad of potential problems(cable popping off the drum, fighting with the bottom seal, etc.). The easiest way is to raise the door and loosen the verticle track enough to be able to pop the bottom roller(and only the bottom roller) out of the track for replacement. Or use the other technique you mention by bending a small area of the verticle track with a vice grip and use a pry bar to pop the roller out for replacement. This is the way I do it. It's fast, easy, and wayyyyyyy safer. That being said, thank you for going over the dangers of the spring and explaining where the spring tension is held. I've been to many aftermath scenarios after someone effed up and lost a finger, maimed themselves, or even died. I've seen all 3. Keep up the good work.

he didn't like ur comment, must be offended LOL

[@joshyork9118]

Been installing and servicing garage doors for about 6 years now and doing it the way you said was not preferable (prying track open and then sliding hinge and roller out) is by far the easiest and safest way to do it. takes me all of about 3 minutes to swap out 10 rollers on a 7ft garage door. however, at least you were aware that the bottom bracket is under tension...99% of customers think the garage door opener does all the lifting.

[@96712]

I been installing doors and service for about 10 years now. The easiest and safest way i found to replace rollers and any door is to remove the vertical. Bam replace all rollers in 10 seconds

[@InuranusBrokoff]

@@96712 Not safe at all, if the door is under tension you risk damaging your bottom section, especially on wider doors, not to mention the possibility of it folding completely backwards, being pulled out of the opposite track, and losing the entire door.

[@96712]

@@InuranusBrokoff well according to your comment, it sounds like you’ve never worked on a overhead sectional door. Do 1 side at a time. Done it on very large doors. Large as in 25x16 2” thick doors. Less than 5 mins.

[@dgunearthed7859]

Hey all you garage guru's (seriously, not being snarky), I have a garage door that's come off the track about 5 times now (I KNOW, why haven't I called a garage door guy yet)......point is I'm curious...is it your opinion the most likely reason this has happened is due to faulty rollers? I've been in this house probably 7 years? And it's eally only done this sporadically about the last two years. AND it's always the one side coming off the track. Thank you folks! Update: I just inspected the rollers and everything moves pretty well. I don't see any missing bearings. The only thing I could see that might be an issue is the top two rollers seem canted. So for perspective, if you were looking out the garage, these two rollers, if wheels on a "squat car" would be kinda canted out. Know what I mean? And it's not the roller per se but the mounting bracket is basically MAKING the rollers can't out. I'm thinking this is the issue?

[@chambleton702]

I know right I've been on ride alongs with co-workers and to see who can do it fastest using the hammer to tap out the flat part of the vertical just below the radius curve and vertical meet, using the same hammer popping all them out but tops in like 30 seconds a side so very safe and very easy Unless the door isn't balanced or a steal back in a tight space lol

[@TheSteveador]

door tech here, you could just take the vertical track off and replace them all in one go. one side at a time of course.

[@samsamson3623]

Make us a video please!

[@dig1035]

Please provide a link to this 'whole track' method!

[@JesusChristIsLord07]

Do not do this method, you do understand, the bottom of the door is connected to a cable, at the other end of that cable is a very large, very strong spring with all force concentrated on upward pressure, that track is hold the door in place while the stopped opener keeps it in place, you remove the entire track? Think…

[@AntoniOrszykowski]

@@JesusChristIsLord07 Something inside tells me that you actual right.

[@kennethweseman4175]

Oops

[@stephenj5980]

I used to do this for a living, and bending the track is easier and faster. All you need is a set of vise-grip pliers and a flathead screwdriver. Also, install nylon coated rollers instead.

[@donjohnson3701]

Just replaced the springs and did a complete overhaul: springs, cable, bearings and rollers.. Used the nylon rollers and they are quiet! Definitely the way to go. 😊

[@InuranusBrokoff]

Just a warning from an experienced door guy, there's a lot of folks talking about removing the vertical track one by one to change all of the rollers at once; I would like to tell you why this is not a good idea. If you remove your vertical track on either side of your door there is still a possibility that your bottom section will fold backwards, and cause a considerable amount of damage, especially on wider, and/or thinner worn out doors. Even worse, your door could be pulled out of the other track, and at that point you are going to need a new door, and possibly a trip to the ICU. Just take into consideration that some of the people here offering advice may not have a clue what they are talking about.

[@Truckguy1970]

Especially if the door is down and has tension on it, removing the track can make it buckle and once it does it'll also pull the bottom section up and make it slide off of the rollers on the other side. Once that happens all bets are off

[@troystone2243]

I saw a guy almost get his face ripped off from that spring. Thanks for the great videos.

[@brothleutner]

I'm sure you dont need any more tools, but I started using Milwaukee's 12 volt fuel impact for most things... man. They are so crazy light and really have enough power for 95% of things. Makes those overhead and awkward position times a lot easier. Also, the explanation for death seemed more tongue in cheek than of real. Thanks again.

[@linwizz2126]

I have the little bosch like that, it is the one I use the most. I only get the bigger one out if the little one is not strong enough.

[@aeg100]

Your instructions are excellent, I began replacing rollers, and it seemed so easy I was surprised. I discovered your video that confirmed my technique. I must've viewed you video long ago and didn't recall because I was following your directions step by step. Now, I'll finish the job with growing confidence and the satisfaction of DIY...with your assistance. Keep up the good work?follow

[@krispykremeSP]

As a garage door installer i would say you did a fine job! Knowing the tension and where it is located on the door will save a lot of headache and injury. Good work!

[@NickCager]

I never knew how heavy a garage door was until the spring broke one day... couldn't budge the thing.

[@theMadSpektre]

This is the 4th video I've watched on replacing rollers, but the first that didn't involve bending the track(s) at some point. Thanks!

[@jstar1000]

You can bend the track out slightly enough to get the roller out at about eye level and one by one open the door so each wheel is in that position and remove the wheel from the track and out of the bracket without removing a single screw in any of the brackets except the very top one which mine only had one screw holding on the part that holds the rod to the wheel so two screws total. When done you bend the one inch section of track back in place, you have to do it in one spot on both sides.

That was a great video! I had no idea how to do a project like this. Really good tips about the cable. Wow, I pity the poor people who find that out the hard way!

[@RobertBarth1]

Growing up, our 2-car had a heavy wooden door, and a spring that I'm pretty sure was either non-existent or not wound correctly and we didn't have money for fancy crap like garage door openers. If we wanted to ride our bikes, we opened that door manually. Imagine an 8 year old hoisting that unsprung heavy piece of crap up in the air. Several times a day. All summer. That was my brother and me.

Hey Handyman, I have been binge watching your videos for week as I am an electrician myself moving into the home improvement/contractor side of things. The area I live in is near Bozeman, MT, which is booming, is the perfect market for the business strategy that you follow. I am in the process of implementing a lot of the advice you have provided on your channels!! I really like the hats and the red caulk gun shirt is the best!! I just wanted to thank you for being as thorough and open in your videos as you have been.

[@darrenspragg8829]

You did a great job . Being in the garage door industry it was good to hear about the dangers involved with this part of the house. That bottom wheel, cable and springs require respect and awareness that it can go pear shaped quicker than you can blink. Keep up the top videos

[@11151985vampiro]

Since we are talking “home maintenance”, what are your thoughts on all the garage door maintenance stuff. Like spray lube, tub o grease, and such. If your garage door works fine and not showing signs of needed replacement parts. Do you ever need to lube the spring or spray the wheels?

[@IIVIIOJICA10]

Lube all the hinges and rollers every 6 months with silicon spray. Even if there is no sign of issues. Lubing will make the door quieter and if you have plastic roller it will make the door run smother.

[@williamspence5476]

Also the spring and bearings in the head plates

[@samanetha89]

These videos are sooooo addicting!!!! I am retaining none of what you're saying and doing but it makes no difference, I'll keep watching anyway 🤷‍♀️

[@brianflanagan2747]

For the bottom roller changes I disconnect the door from the trolley and loosen top bolts on the bottom roller guide. This allows you to pull the top of the roller guide back and not in line with the upper roller guide and then lift the door up just high enough that the roller can be pulled out and replaced. You put the new roller on, push the door back down, push the roller guide back in place and tighten the bolts.

[@johannesweltin-cg5oo]

I just took off bottom roller bracket to replace roller. I unhooked cable and then bottom bracket came off easily, allowing me to replace the roller in the track slide on the bracket and replace one of the screws holding it on the door then I reattached the cable on the bottom bracket and finished tightening it up with the second screw. JDWELTIN

[@frankyvee1]

The most important thing I would have done different would be to buy nylon wheels vs metal ones. The nylon wheels if you buy good ones (Dura-Lift Ultra Life Max Nylon Rollers) will last much longer and are much quieter than the metal ones.

[@beepbop6697]

Since his door is much heavier than a standard door, best to get rollers rated for that extra weight -- dunno if nylon rollers will hold up in this application.

[@n0rth3rnlight]

Another way of doing it and the way we pros do it in Sweden mostly: - turn of power to motor - raise the door 10 inches - lock the gate to the rails with either a speciality tool or heavy duty screw clamps - attach a friction lock to the wire (called a lingroda or a ropefrog in Swedish) - from the friction lock attach a ratchet strap or a kito chain pulley to the rails below the lock and pull down. - this tensions the spring and creates slack on the lowest bracket. Now you are able to change the roller from a nice working height. This works for all doors. With that said I think your way of working is very safe and also can be made without speciality tools.

[@scotta9114]

Our Garage Door Opener (Chamberlain) bit the dust because the double-size wood garage door had weak springs. The rollers would also come off the track on one side. So I closed the Garage Door and noticed the springs have a yellow stripe on them. The left spring had nine twists and the right only 7. I believe this imbalance was causing the door to also bind and jump off the track? I bought a couple of 1/2" rods and adjusted the springs equally. I got the door to stay put with it halfway open which I believe is correct. Waiting for the Chamberlain rebuild kit for the Opener. Wife said to update our 1989 Opener but I don't like throwing stuff out - fix it instead. I need to do the rollers and maybe the hinges? Your video will help out immensely. I will say, adjusting the springs as I did was a bit spooky. It took quite a bit of force to twist the spring units. I marked the rods with a felt pen so I could be confident they were all the way in the hole. Since I had my Back broken to almost 2 years ago, I could really feel the pain from the downforce. I put on my Motorcycle Helmet to protect my head. LOL. A contractor we hired broke my Back and pain 24 hours a day gets really old. Breaking your Back (burst fracture L2) is overrated. Avoid at all costs.

Any thoughts about insulating regular metal garage doors. Ive had many customers ask me about it and have done a few. quickest and easiest 400 I've ever made. Got it down too just over 1 hr labor time.

[@benlumisnz]

Hi justin. I work as a garage door tech in new zealand. Im not sure where you are from but with the doors i install, retro fitting insulation can void the warranty. Reason being is springs are rated to carry an exact amount of weight. You can add tension but as the springs are over worked the warranty will be void. Hope this helps

[@JuanMorales-ks4ll]

i hope next time you have some help with the cámara especially with is the hard and danger spot like it the last roller when you raise the door and the cable is connect to that roller...

[@01embryo]

Gloves, eye protection and grease the shafts before you put them in. Otherwise, pretty cool.

[@robgeach8105]

you can always slap a little hot rod red paint on the cable bracket to make it stand out like a sore thumb in the far flung future where the door still exists but the handyman doesn't.

[@samjones4293]

Separate the vertical track from the radius. Remove the top to lag bolts on the track brackets. Slide the door down 4 in pull out the wheel but the new one back in reassemble. Won't lose your fingers this way

[@scuba6797]

Do you center the wheels on the track or push them against the back of the track?

[@realrayra]

Thx for the vid, was wondering how I was going to replace the bottom rollers, after having done the rest.

[@justinburgan4184]

Shane Falco is scared of quicksand. I'm scared of garage doors. I saw my dad get a wrench on the the door and the tension spun that wrench so damn fast. He got lucky. It went right past his forearm. No doubt about it... His forearm would have been broke if it hit it.

[@zacksgaragedoorserviceandr1208]

Hey so I want to give you some tips because I do garage doors all the time so whoever did your garage door opener mounted it way too high it’s supposed to be about 2 inches at least when the garage door is fully to its highest point is where it supposed to be because if it’s too high up it puts a lot of pressure on the top panel and if you buy steel rollers at your home center they don’t last long worth a damn and you have to spend more more money on rollers that are made in China and the crap I recommend going off of a garage door dealer Or off of Amazon for a door that size you can go with commercial grade rollers yes in back your mind you were saying how much will this cost for garage door that size probably $50-$60 depending on the type you buy but I recommend nylon rollers not the plastic ones the type that is no one on the outside and steel bearings on the inside it will make your garage or sound really quiet and it works really well if you have any questions of anything let me know

[@chrismoore9997]

You asked for critique, so you could have had better lighting and more closeups to see the details. Other than that, great work. Thanks. I had to replace the spring on a garage door because the old spring broke. Where I live, doing that in the summer is like working inside an oven because the door is too heavy to lift with the spring disconnected. No air and it wasn't even a dry heat.

[@TheHandyman1]

I agree on the lighting. It wasn't a good recording area.

[@michaelplays2449]

Handyman you did nothing wrong 👍 your the best ! Thanks for the video

[@biggerscranerealestategroup]

Great video! Just to clarify...for the bottom rollers, you did NOT disconnect the cable from the bracket...right? All you did was ensure there was sufficient slack by raising the door. And then you removed the bracket and changed out the roller. Correct?

[@ZRXBILL]

I’ve replaced my rollers twice now by just bending the track with vice grips. Super easy no worries.

[@rstephe]

Shouldn't you have lubricated the new rollers? I lube mine every year or so and luckily have never had to change them. I find lithium grease works great. Thanks for sharing.

[@diverdave4056]

next time use nylon wheels - they have ball bearings make a lot less noise . also put a little lube on the axles - clean the tracks and lube up all of the door hinges , lube the springs and the bearings on the cables pulley's

[@mikesimone1]

[@paulmoehrke5024]

you can get most rollers out with the claw of your hammer and new ones back in with a soft tap. its best to put the roller you are trying to remove between the mounting brackets of track

[@jimcahill6330]

With the door down, I make markings on the wall around the vertical track's mounting brackets then remove the vertical track (one at a time) - typically 4 bolts per side. Change all pulleys and reinstall track using the markings for proper alignment.

[@justinburgan4184]

That's what I started thinking about as I was watching. But I didn't get that far yet. I was thinking of removing the top track so he could lift the door and replace as he goes. But then the door would bend as it got higher. Then I see this and think. Yes. This makes more sense to me.

[@dcam91]

Just occurred to me that the little metal balls I've found on the floor must be bearings to my garage door wheels.. just had a wheel come off the track and I had to fix the cable too. It was freezing outside so I tapped my wheel back in the track, and see that the wheel was at a severe angle with a lot of play, only seemingly possible if they are missing bearings. Going to see if replacing wheels improves things. Thanks!

How do you charge for a service job like this, when you don’t know exactly how long it’ll take, or how many wheels ( or any job that may need multiple supplies) that need replacing? I’ve been doing t&m with a 4 hour minimum. Some customers find it acceptable , and others flip out.

[@TheHandyman1]

I bought enough wheels to replace them all. It took about 30 minutes I charged $150. All my customers have been my customers for years. I haven't taken on a new customer in over 2 years. I only give estimates for larger projects.

Nicely done! Was wondering two things: 1) Is it best to just replace all the rollers once you see one or two failing? 2) Should the roller shafts be greased before reinstallation?

[@droolbunnyxo9565]

Check to see if the door is square or not - it may just be closing on a slight angle & scraping the rail. (Instead of closing smoothly straight up & down.) If so, a slight door re-allignment should solve the problem. With the door closed, see if any daylight come thru the door's top, bottom & sides unevenly, one side vs the other. If so, there are screws you can turn to square the door up. But I forget which ones. Best to YT or Google it.)

[@AbbreviatedReviews]

ok... Looking forward to this one...

[@sparkysimian]

lol... As you say, "tell me what I did wrong" I start typing. The "wheels" are called rollers. and that "rail" you had to deal with is called a strut. First of all. Thank you for emphasizing how dangerous the cable and spring are. You do want to be sure there is no tension on that cable before you start pulling nuts or screws. If you put a vice trip on the track under one of the rollers, it will add a little bit of safety and prevent the door from rolling down the track while the cable is off. I have used this method before, but it's really not the easiest. Usually, you can grab the middle horizontal portion of the track and twist it. This allows you to push the roller up and out of the track. Swap out the roller quick and put it back by twisting the track again. This will work for all but the bottom 1 or 2 rollers.
